Afterschool Magic

Some afterschool professionals seem to have a magic touch-they know just what to do to engage and challenge youth. The proof of their wizardry? Children keep coming back for more! The good news: It’s not a secret and it’s not magic.

Engineer for the Week (EFTW) is a Facebook Education program that aims to demystify the world of tech by empowering students to build a working tech prototype while developing computer science skills.

EFTW’s Spring Sprint starts this February! The program seeks to reach youth underrepresented in Computer Science and Engineering and increase access in environments where educational experiences with technology are limited.
